Tilting at Windmills

Is there some good reason we should not be pushing to get the UN to introduce a bill declaring that all minerals, including oil, belong to the people of the country in which they are mined? Those who extract them etc can make their profit but the majority of the revenues should go toward the health, education and welfare of the people. Of course this wont happen any time soon for all the reasons we know too well, but why shouldn't we be trying for it?
